Another piece from Art Smart classes. We were studying Primitive Art. Again strictly from imagination. I spent some time last week working and reworking this in oil pastel. There is so much added to the surface, I could actually carve into it. But I finally pulled it to this point where I considered it finished.
Spent several hours today matting and framing. Then several more hours running these last two pieces and Oil pastel of Jerry for juried holiday exhibit at La Grange Art League. Thought it quite brave as the pieces seem so amateur to me. But I felt it a necessary leap. Of course not all shoppers are looking for strict professionalism. Or did I mean the perfectionism that I've been skinning from my being.

Wonderful again! Very pleasing to the eye. And I love the character you put into your skies.
I love the imagination you are dipping into. This is one of my most favorite pieces. The colors dazzle my eyes. The trees dance. Your love of nature radiates throughout this image. I think you have a forte for primitive art. Glad to see you creating outside of the box!
